Should I polish it, or not worry about it and wait until it requires a service? What do you guys and gals do?

You should do what you feel is appropriate Kat.

Everyone has a different opinion, from those who feel having a beat to crap $40k watch is a badge of honour to those who prefer to keep their watches looking pristine.

All of us fit somewhere along that scale and will have an opinion, but the only one that matters is yours

How do you feel about them? If they bother you, tape off the case and gently use a sunshine cloth. It will help with the finer micro scratches and swirls. Its safe enough to use on gold so it will be totally fine on steel.

If they don't bother you, just leave them.
